integral of 2/(x-5)

\int \frac{2}{x - 5} d x

2 ln ∣ x - 5 ∣ + C

Solution steps

\int \frac{2}{x - 5} d x

Take the constant out:

\int a \cdot f (x) d x = a \cdot \int f (x) d x

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{x - 5} d x

Apply u-substitution

: \int \frac{1}{u} d u

= 2 \cdot \int \frac{1}{u} d u

Use the common integral:

\int \frac{1}{u} d u = ln (∣ u ∣)

= 2 ln ∣ u ∣

Substitute back

u = x - 5

= 2 ln ∣ x - 5 ∣

Add a constant to the solution

= 2 ln ∣ x - 5 ∣ + C

\int \frac{7}{x ^{2} - 4} d x

\int \frac{4}{9 e ^{2 x} + 3} d x

\int 2 tan^{3} (θ) d θ

\int \frac{2 x ^{5} + 3 x ^{2}}{1 + 2 x ^{3}} d x

\int \frac{2 ^{3 x - 2}}{3 ^{2 x - 3}} d x
